    Stunning views of downtown and a menu featuring only seafood caught in the restaurant's namesake, an area the UN has designated as an official, ecologically sustainable fishing spot. [Eater 38 Member] Read more

    A restaurant with a great view. Enjoy a cocktail at their outside bar with a gorgeous view of Brickell, Brickell Key, & Miami River as you wait for your table. Chef Of The Year Award for seafood.

    An outdoor terrace situated amid a scintillating urban vista of skyscrapers and waterways is likewise enchanting, but the pristine seafood preparations are the real reason to head here fast. Read more

    Enjoy the views from the 16th floor of the premiere EPIC Hotel in downtown. Reminiscent of a ship deck, Area 31’s terrace offers expansive panoramas of Miami’s stunning skyline and waterways.

    Good bar scene with comfortable seating. I thought the food was less inspiring than the bar experience. The pool is much less scintillating and without the great vibe promised on the Epic website.

    If views could kill this place would be deadly. Add in some killer cocktails and a solid happy hour on Fridays, and you've got one of the best spots in all of Brickell.

    The 16th floor terrace dining. Very romantic place. I came on a night where they played 90s R&B all night.

    Zuma is one of the best restaurants in town so you have to make a reservation way in advance for dinner. We're happy to have leased out that space, and to be exclusively selling the residences.

    For meaningful conversation and a peaceful view, don't come on a Friday. It's packed, boisterous and LOUD. Dealing w drunk peeps wandering into terrace dining area and blocking the view - no bueno.

    Don't eat the lobster! The size tiny (even if you are familiar with French sizes) but the price is high ($32)! Better have more deserts!
